please excuse my dumbness,but just what is "IFR certification" when
used in the context such as "What was the date of your last IFR
certification?"
if your aircraft has all required instruments and you have complied
with FAR 91.411 regarding static, transponder, and altimeter tests
within last 24 months; then what else is needed?


30-day VOR check.

Perhaps "certification" is being incorrectly used to mean
"IFR currency", meaning the date you last completed your
required 6 actual or simulated approaches (and VOR intercept,
tracking and holding procedures), or instrument proficiency check?
